copied!<p>Good question(s). I've never used TFS but all this certainly is possible with a number of tools. The biggest hurdle is the culture and mindset of the company and developers. </p> <p>I am pro SVN. (But TFS would work I am sure)</p> <p>I'd suggest very light intrusion on daily tasks. </p> <p>Having sandboxes or promotion rules from one branch to another in SVN is one way to do code analysis without holding up the commit process.</p> <p>So, to address each of your points: SVN handles source control and is ancillary/included in change management and Release management</p> <p>Change management/Workflow is basically defined by the project team and can be helped with simple tools or just enforced by policy.</p> <p>Release management is also policy based and uses the existing framework/tools (SVN)</p> <p>Most any of the popular defect/issue tracking systems will handle the Incident and Document management - think wiki with trac or fogbugz (along with SVN for doc mgmt)</p> <p>FXCop and all the other tools can be part of a build for code analysis</p> <p>Testing framework is more policy based than tool driven - you have to make it a priority if that is what you want.</p> <p>Your reporting notion is vague, but I think you have more than enough tools in any scenario to satisfy this</p> <p>I am not sure what you really need as far as integration with 2008. In any case this not much can be as as tightly coupled as TFS, but I don't see that as a problem. </p> <p>(I think you answered your own question.) This may end up being a religious war between MS and anti-MS sides. </p> <p>In the three places I was at where I was in charge of recommending and implementing a solution, we voted with our wallets - against MS. I am sure TFS is capable, but the competition is quite up to the task and I think those tools translate well for other jobs. </p> <p>As for tools to consider - I think searching Stack overflow for nant, msbuild, cruisecontrol, etc will give you more content than you can shake a stick at... </p>
